Former Penn State Football offensive lineman Rich Ohrnberger wasn’t expecting the call.
Entering the 2009 NFL Draft, Ohrnberger expected to be chosen in the sixth or seventh-round, if at all, and very nearly missed hearing his name called, when he was ultimately picked No. 123 overall by the New England Patriots.
Had his round of golf on Day 2 of the 2009 NFL Draft ran long, he might have taken the call while putting, or standing on a tee box.
